It's that most wonderful time of the year yet again, folks: the faux holiday known as Gheorghemas*. And, as in years past, Day One is late and Teej-centric, because, well, it's me.
On the first day of Gheorghemas
Big Gheorghe gave to me
A bald guy and some random hor-seys
*Is it really the 9th year we've done this? I'm not gonna do the math, and the intern went to work for Axios, so we're just gonna go with 9th year of this bigly holiday.
it really is the most wonderful time of the year. that's not saying much for this particular garbage year, but it's still something.
ReplyDeleteNow I see why this took so long.
ReplyDeleteI call Day 1 for 2018
ReplyDeleteday 1 is teej's bailiwick, danimal. it's a tradition unlike any other. very unlike.
ReplyDeleteIt’s like the Masters, only shittier.
ReplyDeleteAt least Jim Vance doesn't read each GTB post and comment aloud. That would suck.
ReplyDeleteAs opposed to Vance Joseph.
ReplyDeleteJim Nantz. And Jim Vance. And Vance Joseph. And Vince Vance.
ReplyDeleteBut not Vince Vaughn or Vincent Vega.
ReplyDeleteVance Joy

Company Christmas dinner tonight! Hoping to be employed tomorrow at this time.
thanks for the link in the digital mail, teej! led me right to gheorghemas . . .
ReplyDeleteMilky cereal.
ReplyDeleteZ, the interwebz just told me that Stax Records posted a 'Stax Christmas' playlist to Spotify (whatever that is).
ReplyDeleteI'd imagine there are some deep soul yuletide grooves that are sure to get your holiday party jumpin'.
glad to see Day 1 was so well received
ReplyDeleteThanks rootsy. There are some real gems on that list.
ReplyDeleteMy company party is now. If’s at the Hard Rock in Times Square, which is awful in all kinda of ways. Arrived solo at 640 to a massive shitshow - huge lines for coat check and for buffet. I ate a scotch in 5 minutes, let my department head see my face, and then left. Couldn’t be happier, especially b/c they were only serving Johnny Red and Dewar’s.
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty funny:

Don Lemon got some bad fashion advice tonight.
ReplyDeletesat courtside at tribe/mason this evening, courtesy of fogtb cliffy. sat with mason a.d. and former redskin brad edwards and near darrell green, who works for edwards in the mason athletic department. had to restrain myself multiple times as the tribe overcame a 12-point halftime deficit to win, 77-70. we talked scheduling with edwards, and he lamented the current state of affairs, saying that he loved in the in-state games, but that mason can't afford to lose at home to teams like willliam and mary. oops.
